Borussia Dortmund vs Nuernberg Match Prediction

By Bharath Ramm R

Borussia Dortmund’s dropped more points after drawing against Hoffenheim during the weekend. Dortmund have to get more consistent with their away performances after drawing both matches on the road. Still, the familiar positives for the club like the strength of Marco Reus continue to hold them in good stead. Nuremberg produced a strong performance to pick up their first league win but it is difficult to back Michael Köllner’s men at the Signal Iduna Park. After having watched Dortmund win at half-time and full-time in both home games this season, I would go with more of the same.

Marco Reus has been in brilliant form at the start of the season. The 29-year-old did not score against Hoffenheim but he did set up the equaliser from Christian Pulisic. Reus has never scored a league goal against Nuremberg in eight attempts and it is better to back a game with over 2.5 goals considering the attacking potential within the home team.
